DESCRIPTION:PhD Oral Defence of Christie-Anna Lovat\, Plant Science\n\nAmer
 ican chestnut (Castanea dentata (Marsh.) Borkh.) is functionally extinct i
 n its native range. Short term conservation methods for C. dentata in tiss
 ue culture were developed and improved upon in this work. Methods to impro
 ve multiplication rate (physiological stage of source material and incubat
 ion temperature) and microshoot quality (effect of exogenous medium modifi
 cations in 6-benzylaminopurine\, calcium\, magnesium\, boron\, and gelling
  agent type and concentration on the incidence of shoot top necrosis (STN)
 ) were investigated in the axillary shoot culture of genotypes from geneti
 cally diverse sub-populations of C. dentata. Physiological stage of source
  material effected multiplication rate\, with seedling-stage source materi
 al producing the most vigorous cultures. Incubation temperature effected m
 ultiplication rate in three out of eight genotypes tested.\n\nEveryone in 
 the McGill community is welcome to attend a PhD oral defence. Please join 
 us in celebrating the accomplishments of our PhD candidates.\n
